June 23 - the first followers of Jesus

The church is focused on outcasts.

The "church" does not have a firm structure.

There is a substantial leadership of God. The leadership is not human.

The first followers were worshiping by prayer

Christ was baptized and demonstrated the first Eucharist

Jesus proclaimed the kingdom among outcasts

Jesus demonstrated the kingdom by healing, preaching, and forgiving

The church fellowship was upside down, the first were last and the last were first

This is demonstrated by Jesus washing the feet of his followers

Jesus went to the outcast and the marginalized to proclaim that the Kingdom was near. Jesus witnessed to the kingdom by performing miracles and pronouncing forgiveness.
